Jue paints and paints with his hands, without raising his head.
"When is your birthday?"
"The day you finished the exam." The Duke continued to draw on the paper with a pen. If she wasn't really talking, Leng Xing would suspect that she would have ignored him at all.
"You're a Capricorn!"
"So?" She finally raised her head, glanced at Leng Xing's laptop screen, then lowered her head, "On the Internet again?"
"No, no, no... I'm shopping on Taobao. Do you know what a Capricorn is like?"
"do not know."
"Like painting so much? I'll buy a set of paints, so that your paintings are not all black and white."
Next, while browsing various paints, Leng Xing popularized constellation knowledge to the Duke.
And the duke kept "hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm" for a while, but actually... the left ear went in and the right ear went out.At the end, he added a sentence lightly: "This thing is not allowed, I just tricked you to play."
"Huh? Astrology is a great science! It originated from..."
The duke hastened to divert her attention by handing her the finished picture.
"Huh? Why did you draw me again?"
"Who else can you draw?"
"Landscapes, flowers and birds..."
"Landscapes, flowers and birds? Do you think there are any here?"
"You can draw yourself. That's right..." Leng Xing turned on the phone and tapped the Duke.
"Ok?"
"It's so eye-catching to see you as my mobile phone desktop~ It's so good to see a beauty~ It would be even better if it was more cute~" She sighed, looking at the picture of the duke who is full of temperament.
"Cute? It's fine if you don't take a selfie, why do you want me to be cute..."
She, talent, no, want, can, love, too!
In the early hours of the morning, Leng Xing finally yawned so much that he was about to close his laptop and go to sleep.
"Who is drawing this time?"
"Guess~~~"
"I don't know." She yawned, "Go to sleep, I'm so sleepy."
"Do not you know?"
She did not hear the Duke's whisper.
The picture is a corner of the park, on a wooden bench——
The sitting girl with long hair is leaning forward, lowering her head to the little girl standing in front of her.
The little girl was very cute, she looked only seven or eight years old, she smiled sweetly, with small dimples at the corners of her mouth.
The long-haired girl is tying something around the wrist of the girl in front of her. If you look carefully, you will find that it is a ribbon embroidered with exquisite patterns, made of expensive materials, and inlaid with precious stones.
The sun hit the girl's face, half of her face was almost transparent under the sunlight, while the other half was hidden in the shadows.The deep eyes were fixed on the girl, and the wind whizzed past, blowing the long ribbon into the air, fluttering in the air, like a free elf.
That was the Duke ten years ago.
The author has something to say: the story of the ribbon~
chapter35 Auston (Part [-])
Alston, from England, means a man of noble birth.
——Red Doujun
On January 2014, 1, the last day before the start of the exam week, the Duke sent Leng Xing back to school, and she was going to the company for a meeting.
When Leng Xing knew that the Duke was so busy, he was quite surprised: "A meeting? Shouldn't you be on vacation now?"
"Strigoi don't have holidays, businessmen don't even have one, and I happen to be a combination of the two." The Duke shrugged his shoulders with a look of indifference.
"By the way, I don't know where your company is yet."
"Want to go see?"
"Hmm." She nodded, "I wonder what company doesn't even have holidays."
In fact, the Duke couldn't clear it up yesterday.When Leng Xing sneaked away to the hospital, the Duke was still dealing with military affairs.As a senior official of the Vanjo family and even the entire Camarilla military department, the Duke needs to approve official documents almost every day.
The Duke brought Leng Xing to the company, and through the rolling gate, the skyscrapers that went straight into the sky greeted his eyes.Seeing this situation, Leng Xing immediately refused to go up because she had severe fear of heights.
"Okay, I'll take you back to school now."
Holding the steering wheel loosely with one hand, the Duke stared at Leng Xing.
"No, I'll just take the bus."
Leng Xing quickly opened the car door and got out of the car, but the Duke quickly locked the car and followed.
Even if she wanted to take a bus, she was sent to the station by the Duke, and His Excellency would accompany her to wait for the bus...
"Aren't you going to a meeting?"
"Don't worry, it's more important to be with you."
Leng Xing smiled.
As a result, when the Duke saw the horror scene of crowded people in the bus, who looked like sandwiches, he resolutely rejected Leng Xing's proposal: "No, how can my baby suffer this kind of suffering."
"I have sat countless times before, and I am still alive and well."
Leng Xing couldn't help raising his eyebrows like the Duke. It turned out that the so-called husband and wife looks are actually formed by getting along with each other for a long time and subtle influence on each other.
"Anyway, it's not possible." The Duke's attitude was extremely firm, "I will never allow others to take advantage of the opportunity to attack you."
It turned out to be like this... There were three black lines on Leng Xing's forehead.
This possessive woman...
When the Duke delivered Leng Xing——
"Go to your meeting, I'm going back~ I won't see you~" She smiled and kissed the corner of the Duke's lips, opened the car door, and soon disappeared.
As soon as Leng Xing left, the smile on the Duke's face disappeared without a trace.
Another fierce battle to be fought.
She pursed her lips, thinking of the turbulent scene the day before yesterday.
Taking Leng Xing to the company was not because she really had a meeting, but because she wanted Leng Xing to know where to find her, if... anything unexpected happened.
Why not take her to Fort Shura?Don't be ridiculous, in the wilderness, how do you think Leng Xing, a human being without any spiritual power, will get there?
The Duke drove back to the company, parked the car, and used an instant transfer back to the castle where there was no one there.
A pair of red eyes were facing the Duke's eyes.
"Your Highness." Gavin, a blood man who was nominally the Duke's butler but was actually the Duke's right-hand man, looked at her seriously.
"how is the situation?"
"The radicals were yelling and cursing outside the manor of His Royal Highness Prince Proseus and using their spiritual power to destroy it. The level is very good, after wounding a lot of Guards soldiers, they walked away, and then broke into the elders directly."
"The Presbyterian Church's defense is so poor now, can troublemakers break in casually?" The Duke couldn't help being surprised, which even overwhelmed the anger of the troublemakers for trespassing.
"Your Highness, you also know that most of the elite troops have been transferred to suppress the mutiny of the Bruch family to prevent them from making any further changes. At present, the elite troops are still stationed in Ambitio. Weren't you still at the scene the day before yesterday? Now guarding The presbyterians were just the most ordinary soldiers, and the troublemakers were basically the Zmihi nobles above the viscount, and they easily broke through the defense.”[1]
"Hmm. Then what?"
The Duke has long heard about the cruelty of the Zmich family.In fact, the Duke, who has half of Zmich's blood on his body, is definitely an out-and-out ruthless character, but she grew up in the Vendro family, and she inherited more of the Vendro people's mediation skills in the political whirlpool than The Zmisch spare no effort to suppress the brutality of their enemies.It can be said that the duke's ability to establish a foothold in the military department and establish a high prestige is due to his talent. After all, the military department is a relatively tough and head-to-head place.
Her face darkened, she was only away for a day, and so many things happened.
The Duke remembered the scene of the mutiny of Bruch's army the day before yesterday, and he was in a very bad mood.
July 1, 1 p.m.
"Your Highness, Bruch's army has mutinied and has surrounded the Camarilla Council, demanding the dissolution of the Hidden Alliance and the abolition of the precepts. The family elders voted unanimously to send you to lead the army to suppress the mutiny."
As the leader of the Hidden Alliance, the Vanjo family has spared no effort to maintain the alliance and enforce the precepts without letting up for a moment.At this moment, such a big event happened—the Camarilla Parliament was paralyzed, and the speaker and some members were surrounded by Bruch's army.As a high-ranking official of the military department, Duke Rose, who has a high prestige in the army, is duty-bound to resolve this matter.
"Bruch is really worrying, not being loyal to the alliance and fighting among himself all day long, and asking for the abolition of the precepts? Daydreaming!" The Duke's face was frosty, and she was furious after hearing these things.Ever since she was in charge of the Vanjo family army, the infighting of Bruch's party has caused her troubles, such as coup d'état, chaos, and internal strife.As the leader of the secret party, the Vanjo family, the soul of Camarilla, how could it be possible to let it go?No matter what the situation was, the Ventrue always went to clean up the mess for them, and this task often fell to the Rose Duke.
This time, the trouble is getting worse and worse, and you still want to abolish the precepts?
"Sure enough, it's a family that broke away from the Devil's Party. It's really doing my best to cause trouble for me."
There was a mixture of sarcasm and anger on the Duke's face.
If one had to pick out a family that Duke Rose was most unhappy with, Bruch dared to take the second place, and there would be no number one.The Vanjo family and the Bruhe family have always disliked each other. The Bruhe people rely on their high talent and strong spiritual power, and they don't pay attention to the Vanjo family who controls the secret party and maintains order. A hypocritical politician, arrogant and domineering.In addition, they have a large number of parties, and they believe in basically any religion and theory. From anarchists to radical chauvinists and Nazis, it can be said that there are all kinds of birds in the forest. fight.As a pillar of the Great Revolution, Bruch seldom bowed to the founders of the Hidden Alliance, and generally had a bad opinion of the elders.Although the Bruges are members of the Hidden Alliance, they are the instigators in the alliance, constantly testing the bottom line of the precepts, and rebelling against the group for their own beliefs.Many of the Bruch were radical reactionaries who scorned authority and dismissed the prince.Therefore, they poked out all kinds of baskets every three days, and most of the news about the vampires in human society, such as "vampires appear", "man lost all blood, suspected to be vampires", etc. Made by the He family.As a member of Kamalila, they didn't take the precepts to heart at all, and it could even be said that they regarded them as nothing. [2]
And the Vanjo family, as the enforcers of the precepts, the founders of the alliance, the nobles and conquerors of the blood clan, attaches great importance to rules and laws, so they are naturally very tired of this kind of behavior.At the beginning, the Vanjo people who were natural politicians knew the importance of "maintaining stability". In order to stabilize the situation and prevent the conflict from becoming too intensified, they turned a blind eye to it, as long as the Bruch family didn't go too far They are not very harsh either.However, tolerance turned out to have serious consequences. The Bruhe people took the precepts as air more and more, constantly testing the bottom line of the Vanjo people, and exposed the blood world to the eyes of humans many times, which caused the Vanjo people to be very disgusted.Therefore, the elders of Fanzhuo sent the captain of the law enforcement team to lead the law enforcement team to catch criminals, but the Bruch people, relying on their talents, repeatedly confronted the law enforcement team, and even caused many large-scale conflicts and bloodshed.Finally, the contradictions between the two families accumulated deeper and deeper, reaching the point where they were in dire straits.
The duke's displeasure stems from her many law enforcement experiences.
A long time ago, when she took over the army, all the veteran generals under her hand told her how difficult the Bruch family was. People have dated.In her view, the Bruch are excellent scholars and warriors, dedicated to the pursuit of physical and spiritual perfection.Although the relationship with Fanzhuo is not very good, the Duke appreciates their persistence in their dreams.
However, when she first enforced the law, she was disillusioned with the family.
Originally, this kind of task could not fall to the duke who was in charge of the army.In other words, if the army is equivalent to the National Defense Force in the human world, the law enforcement team is equivalent to the police, and we all know that although the National Defense Forces and the police are the solid backing of the state apparatus, there is an essential difference between the two.The Duke is a high-ranking official in the military department but not the chief of the police station, so it stands to reason that this matter is out of her control.
However, the level of spiritual power of the law enforcement team itself is not high, and the captain has repeatedly been unable to suppress the situation, so - this task unfortunately fell to the Duke one day.Why?People are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong. The Duke is well-known outside the world. Countless classic battles in the Millennium Jihad have made her famous, and the unofficial history of the "Snow Moon Tragedy" that was widely circulated among the blood nobles made the Duke even more famous. The incarnation of Medusa in many people's hearts - she is a rose with thorns, although she is peerless and beautiful, you can't touch it.
Therefore, the elders agreed that the duke's "big name" must be able to suppress many Bruch people. After all, the Bruch family has also suffered a lot from the duke.
When the Duke led the law enforcement team to law enforcement for the first time——
"It's your damn law enforcement team again..."
"Give them some color to see..."
"The precepts are bullshit! The blood race should have the supreme dominance, why should we hide?!" A young man spoke with a passionate expression.
"that is!"
"that is!"
There was a response around, and many Bruch people had already started attacking the law enforcement team members.
"Stop!" snapped the Duke.
"What are you?" A group of disdainful voices.
"As members of Kamalila, your behavior has seriously violated the hidden commandments. I am the captain of the law enforcement team. I have come to arrest you and hand them over to the Kamalila court for trial."
"Hmph, just relying on your poor spiritual power?"
"That's right, are you still called a noble in the blood clan? Only those with strong spiritual power are worthy of the title of noble!"
The Bruchers attacked one after another, and the law enforcement team tried their best to resist. However, because they were only law enforcement officers and had not yet reached the level of a lord, they only had the power of arrest but no order to kill, so they could not use heavy hands, otherwise they would be breaking the law knowingly.In addition, the Bruch people themselves are talented and powerful, so the situation has become one-sided.
The Bruhe people used all kinds of destructive magic circles at will, but the law enforcement team was constrained by their identity and spiritual power, so they could only resist with all their strength.
Seeing that the scene was out of control, the Duke instantly understood in his heart that he could only speak with his fists in this situation.There was a dazzling silver light on her hand——
"Boom——" All the magic circles were forcibly terminated, the explosion spread, and smoke and dust flew everywhere.
When the Duke saw his dust-stained cloak, he looked disgusted, and his whole body was full of aura.
"have you had enough?!"
"Who are you?" The leading Bruhe asked aloud, marveling at her strong ability to control spiritual power.
"Duke Rose of the Vatican family." She responded coldly, and there was a gasp of air all around.
"It's the Duke who beat the crap out of Le Senbai!"
"She is a lunatic...you don't even know how she designed to use the magic circle to explode and severely injure the enemy..."
"Duke Biya was shot to death by her arrow!"
"I heard that she also killed five Elder Fanzhuo in a big burst of spiritual power, and the equivalent of spiritual power was more than [-] million!"
"How is it possible?! She is just a duke, and her spiritual power equivalent will not exceed [-] million!"
"You don't know..." someone whispered, "She is a hybrid of Vatican and Zmixi. When her spiritual power erupts, the highest equivalent is said to be [-] million!"
"Nine hundred million?! The prince has been killed in seconds!"
The cold wind howled, like the weeping of an unknown animal, and at this moment, the apex of the hearts of all the Bruch people seemed to be filled with cold wind, and it was icy cold.
The author has something to say: Note:
[1] Ambitio, the original ambitio is Latin, meaning "ambition".Ambitio is quite far from the Emerald City where Fort Shura is located, and is the administrative center of Bruhe.
[2] Part of the introduction is quoted from the Douban post. I have slightly modified it and quoted some sentences in it.
In fact, all the original frameworks of the settings are derived from various network materials, and I would like to express my gratitude to the providers and organizers of these materials~
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------
I admit that this first half of the chapter actually has little to do with Auston, he really appears in the second half of the chapter.It can be said that Auston is the next person who decides the situation, and with his appearance, the second volume is coming to an end.
Regarding the Bruch family, the protagonists in many blood clan novels are basically Bruch, probably because this family is really rebellious and has personality.I once thought about letting the Duke belong to the Bruch family, but the Duke is a ruler and a conqueror. It should be said that the Vanjo family is more suitable for her... and the method of the Zmich family is also that I let the Duke have the Zmich family. The reason of blood, after all, she commands the army.
The radicals in Zmich were mentioned earlier, but why did they bother with Proseus?There is no enmity between Zmixi and Vatican. Vatican has more enmity with Bruch and Lesen. One does not obey the precepts and always causes trouble, and the other is opposed to the secret party led by Vatican.Because... the relationship between Proseus and Daphne (end of words)
Bruch did not make trouble for the Duke, remember the news that Leng Xing browsed in the chapter "Undercurrents"?About "Vampire Crimes", yes, that's what the Bruchs did.
chapter36 Alston (Part [-])
The Duke folded his arms and looked at the chaotic Bruch and the law enforcement team in silence.
Just let them talk about it. If you are afraid, it will be fine.
Unexpectedly, a young blood clan might not have enough knowledge and experience, but he actually yelled at the Duke: "What are you afraid of, she's just a woman! I don't believe that my spiritual power is not as good as hers!"
A cold light flashed across the Duke's narrow blue eyes, and most of the people shivered.
As for the nobles who are a little bit old, who doesn't know that Duke Rose is an out-and-out female devil who killed people in the late period of the Millennium Jihad without blinking an eye.
"Yeah, I've always heard that people from the Bruch family have high spiritual power." She paced slowly, and then stopped in front of the young man.
He raised his chin proudly, and the senior Bruch nobles around him were pulling his sleeves, signaling him not to offend "Medusa".
"However, you have to know that not all Bruchs have high spiritual powers, and not all Vaticans are inferior to Bruchs!"
She flicked her sleeves violently, and instantly the young man's arms hit the ground, blood spattering everywhere.From the bowl-sized wound, blood fell like a waterfall.
"If I hadn't been the captain of the law enforcement team, you would definitely have paid the price for your actions today!" The duke's expression darkened. You must know that although the killing of the same kind is strictly prohibited in the blood race world, this law is against those who wantonly provoke or even insult the nobles. Behavior is invalid.What's even more frightening is that most of the nobles above the duke are lords and have a great power - the right to kill, the power to kill serious offenders first.And violating the precepts, wantonly provoking, and insulting the nobles, he is simply not enough to die a hundred times, who will let—in the world of blood is power, whoever has the power will have the final say?
Of course, the law will not be written in such a naked and arrogant manner, but there is such a rule in the blood race world: the crime of disrespect is higher than any crime, and it is the same crime as killing relatives.It means that if the following is committed, the sin is as serious as killing one's own kind.In the beginning, the "Snow Moon Tragedy" was caused by this. Hector's act of rushing to power violated the crime of disrespect, so he was killed, but the punishment given to him far exceeded what he should pay. The price—it was war after all, and Hector's merits were more than worth his crimes.If it wasn't for Hector, maybe the current Vanjo family wouldn't be the leader of Camarilla, because it was a battle of life and death!
It's not that the Duke did not commit this crime, but she had lost all reason back then, and the witnesses had already died in the spiritual storm, and they paid the price with their lives for their abuse of punishment.In addition, when it comes to identity, the Duke is actually more noble than any elder at that time - she is a fourth-generation pureblood.It's just that the matter has passed, and there is no evidence, so there is no point in entanglement.
So it is conceivable how angry the Duke, a pure-blood who values rules and laws and is extremely arrogant, will be when he faces such a person who dares to provoke her.
However, she still has a sense of proportion. Since she is here to enforce the law, she can't appear too harsh, especially for a family like Bruch who can't eat soft, and can't eat too hard.
There was dead silence all around, and the nobles of Bruch restrained their trembling bodies and treated the unfortunate young man.
The Duke did not stop him, but coldly pronounced the sentence: "After he is cured, everyone will stop using spiritual power immediately. Violators will be regarded as violent resistance to the law, provoking the lord, and will be shot to death!"
She is not only a politician with a smooth wrist in Vanjoy, but also a high-ranking military official with Zmixi's ruthless style, a deserted silver moon hanging high in the sky, a cold and noble hunting goddess, and a thorny rose that no one dares to touch. .She is different from those law enforcement captains who don't dare to make things big and have ordinary spiritual power!
Afterwards, most of the Bruch people who had seen her wrists chose to surrender.It's just that the waves behind the Yangtze River pushed the waves ahead, and the new blood races sprung up one after another. The Duke continued to build up his prestige through troubles, and at the same time he was exhausted and bored.
However, this mutiny incident has long gone beyond the scope of minor disturbances, and is even more serious than previous large-scale conflicts-Bruch's army came to the parliament, and even surrounded the speaker and many members of parliament, which has a bearing on the survival of the parliament.
The Duke was ordered to lead the most elite troops of the Vanjo family to the Camarilla Council. After all, the physique of the members of the Bruch family is indeed one of the best among the blood clans, and they are born powerful fighters.If during the Millennium Jihad, the Duke was not good at strategy but confronted Bruch head-to-head, it is estimated that the Vanjo family would have been beaten to the ground long ago.
Camarilla Council.
The army of the Bruch family and the army of the Vanjo family confronted each other for three full hours, and the hour hand had already pointed to eight o'clock, but the leader of the rebel army was calm, and the Duke was even more calm—as she said to Leng Xing Yes, what she lacks most is patience.
So, even though she is worried about Leng Xing and anxious to death, she still maintains a perfect poker face, no matter you jump up and down or other things, I will stand still.
Originally, Bruch's siege of the parliament this time was also caused by a group of thoughtless young bloods who were instigated by the radicals in the family. The instigators were eloquent, and the young people were hot-blooded. How could his family still remain in the secret party?How could it be whimsical to disband the alliance?After all, they split too many factions, and no one can convince anyone.
So the Duke was surprised when he heard the news.Bruch loves trouble, but not so united.After all, although the Vatican family is also fighting internally, they are surprisingly united in the face of outsiders, like a monolith, otherwise they would not be the rulers.
Finally, the other party couldn't hold back anymore, and slowed down his posture and said: "Duke Rose, I respect your reputation. If I don't do anything, you quickly withdraw your troops. The Hidden Alliance must be disbanded today!"
The Duke only answered three words: "Don't think about it!"
There was a moment of dead silence, the two opposing armies were silent, only the wind blowing the cloaks of the leaders of the two sides fluttered.
The leader's eyes were deep, and the scarlet eyes looked cruel and terrifying.It wasn't long before he answered.
"on!"
"Defeat their army, overthrow the tyrannical rule of Vanjo, and give my blood race freedom!"
Some of the rebels shouted, trying to cheer their side up.
Bruch's soldiers swarmed up, Markas stared and shouted, "Who dares!"
A wave of soldiers rushing up was shocked by his momentum and stopped in fear.However, the soldiers at the back didn't expect it, and they mutinied immediately. While trampling each other, they shouted indiscriminately to stop the soldiers behind from rushing forward.The scene immediately became chaotic!
However, the Fanzhuo army stood silently, and no one made a move.
Although Markas has a handsome face and looks like a frail young man with average combat effectiveness, he should not be judged by his appearance. In fact, he is more bloody than the Duke.Because the duke was born in the ruling family, her political stance determined that she would not be able to kill others anytime and anywhere, while Marcus was a pure soldier and did not have to worry about public opinion.What is the duty of a soldier?obey orders!What is the honor of a soldier?Kill countless enemies!
Naturally, he is not afraid of death, are you ruthless?I am a hundred times more ruthless than you!
He was stunned and afraid of being horizontal, and he was afraid of dying.
So Marcus, like Zhang Fei of Changbanpo, frightened away tens of thousands of enemy troops with a loud roar.Young people are indeed high-spirited and full of blood, but they also have one of their biggest weaknesses-they haven't seen much in the world.
So an extremely strange scene appeared. They were frightened by Marcus' roar, and after the initial sudden stop and stampede, they reacted and retreated one after another.
In fact, this is not completely strange. Although they are surrounded by the parliament with high fighting spirit, they are unavoidably trembling. After all, the members of the parliament are all blood clans with spiritual power levels above the prince. Still easy.It's just that these politicians are like old fritters, and no one wants to be the first bird, so there is a stalemate like this.
The Duke said in a flat tone: "If Bruch wants sex, it is your family's freedom, and Van Zhuo will not interfere, but if you want to abolish the precepts and disband Camarilla..." She paused for a long time, " Unless, you step over the corpses of me, the Duke of Rose of the Vanjo family and our army!"
She said the last few words ruthlessly and quickly, her expression firm and unshakable.
Before the other party could answer, the Duke turned and looked at her soldiers.
"Maintain the precepts and alliances, and you will die!"
The Vanjo soldiers raised their weapons in unison, the sword tip was shining with light, and the red and black military uniforms danced into a sea of fire.
Otherwise, why do you say the duke has high prestige?It only takes one look to trigger such an overwhelming response.However, this is also inseparable from her peerless beauty and illustrious military exploits.
The Duke turned around, with a smile on his lips: "Which is more important, you can decide for yourself."
Just like the dead silence when she took off the provocateur's arm in law enforcement for the first time, this time the situation was completely on the side of Fan Zhuo. Ten minutes passed, twenty minutes passed, and half an hour passed. Under her seemingly flat but murderous gaze, the rebel leader finally couldn't stand it any longer. He uttered a word: "Let's go!"
And just one day later, another accident happened. It can be seen that the Duke's mood is really more gloomy than the sky covered by PM2.5 floating all over the sky until it explodes.
"The anti-riot army has assembled and is ready to follow His Highness' orders," Gai Wen reported.
"Go with me, you are more familiar with the scene than I am."
The Duke vaguely felt that Zmich's purpose this time was not a head-to-head contest between Bruch's army, but a matter of personal grievances.As the right-hand man who often attends the elders meeting for the Duke, Gavin handles such problems more conveniently than the Duke.
Although he was called the Eagle of Victory and had a name that sounded iron-blooded, his diplomatic skills were no worse than that of any prince.Of course, this doesn't mean that he can't control the army anymore, it's just that Gavin's way is more soothing and silent than the Duke's iron blood.
"Yes, Your Highness."
The Duke and Gavin led the temporarily assembled anti-riot army to the Presbyterian Church, but they did not expect that this trip would actually change the history of the Blood Race.The appearance of an unexpected person, the opening of layers of dark curtains, and the exposure of a huge conspiracy make the trajectory of history gallop away in an unpredictable direction like two repelling magnetic poles suddenly pushing each other away. .
"It turned out to be you!" When the Duke appeared in front of the troublesome Zmihi nobles in the elders' meeting, they were all surprised.
"What's wrong with me?" The Duke was momentarily confused, unable to figure out what they were talking about.
"I know you have silver hair, don't hide it." A Zmixi nobleman looked at the familiar face and said.
"..." The Duke was even more surprised. What happened in the past few days became more and more miraculous.
How would they know what they really looked like? !
"Don't you remember Her Majesty Daphne?" Seeing her confused expression, the Zmixi nobles asked, their attitudes were quite different from the fierce and brutal ones before.
"Duke Rose, what is your relationship with these people?!" One of the elders couldn't sit still, his face was full of anger.
It is normal for the elders not to know the Duke's life experience.After all, after Prince Apollo became the head of the elders, but was criticized because of this mixed-race "monster" daughter, he secretly erased the memory of the elders about the Duke's life experience, and The elders who could not be erased also died during the Millennium Jihad either by their opponents or by the Xueyue tragedy, so now there are very few blood clans in the Fanzhuo family who know the blood of the Duke.
"Daphne?" The Duke looked at them strangely, "Who is Daphne?"
Why does this name have a vague sense of familiarity.
"Who is Daphne?" A Zmixi nobleman repeated, and exchanged glances with the people around him. "It seems that her memory has been erased."
"It's probably Apo's." Another person responded, "An ordinary prince would never have such a powerful ability to erase her memory."
"Yes, after all, she is the daughter of His Royal Highness Daphne."
The Zmisch family can be said to be the most scholarly family.certainly.They are also famous for their crazy enthusiasm for science. In order to get the truth of some things, they have done countless terrible experiments, with objects ranging from animals to humans, and even the blood races themselves.It's no wonder that although their spiritual power level is not as good as that of the Bruch, Van Zhuo, and Le Senbai families, their control ability is extremely powerful.The Duke's mother Daphne is one of the best.
Therefore, they naturally know the secrets of the Duke, whether it is her bloodline or because of the outstanding talent and amazing spiritual power brought by this bloodline. After all, no matter how powerful Apollo is, he can't go to the Zmihi family and kill those who know it collectively. of.Their spiritual power control is really terrifying.
"Who is Apollo?"
"It seems that her memory has been erased more than a little bit. Sure enough, that coup..."
"Didn't his brother take charge of the army later..."
"Otherwise, how do you think Vanjo's policy will change so quickly?"
The Zmisch nobles whispered, and the Duke became more and more puzzled as he listened.Coup d'état, army, policy changes, memory erasure... and inexplicably familiar names...
She had a feeling that she was getting closer to the truth.It seems that my guess is not wrong, her memory has indeed been tampered with, but it is not the erasure of Zmixi nobleman's guess, but the seal.
Just as the army of the Vanjo family, the elders, and the nobles of Zmixi looked at each other, a man in black appeared like a ghost.
As if there was no one else around, he paced towards the Duke, seeming very leisurely.However, in contrast to him, the other people present were extremely apprehensive, including the Duke himself, all tensed up because——they all felt the enormous spiritual power from the man in black.
"I think it's up to me to reveal the truth. It's time."
The same man in black as Prince McGee's engagement ceremony!
This voice... seems to have heard...
During the fight that day, the evil prince flying in the air had a warm voice that didn't match his appearance.
The Duke's fists were clenched stiffly, and there was a burst of cold
"When is your birthday?"
"The day you finished the exam." The Duke continued to draw on the paper with a pen. If she wasn't really talking, Leng Xing would suspect that she would have ignored him at all.
"You're a Capricorn!"
"So?" She finally raised her head, glanced at Leng Xing's laptop screen, then lowered her head, "On the Internet again?"
"No, no, no... I'm shopping on Taobao. Do you know what a Capricorn is like?"
"do not know."
"Like painting so much? I'll buy a set of paints, so that your paintings are not all black and white."
Next, while browsing various paints, Leng Xing popularized constellation knowledge to the Duke.
And the duke kept "hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm" for a while, but actually... the left ear went in and the right ear went out.At the end, he added a sentence lightly: "This thing is not allowed, I just tricked you to play."
"Huh? Astrology is a great science! It originated from..."
The duke hastened to divert her attention by handing her the finished picture.
"Huh? Why did you draw me again?"
"Who else can you draw?"
"Landscapes, flowers and birds..."
"Landscapes, flowers and birds? Do you think there are any here?"
"You can draw yourself. That's right..." Leng Xing turned on the phone and tapped the Duke.
"Ok?"
"It's so eye-catching to see you as my mobile phone desktop~ It's so good to see a beauty~ It would be even better if it was more cute~" She sighed, looking at the picture of the duke who is full of temperament.
"Cute? It's fine if you don't take a selfie, why do you want me to be cute..."
She, talent, no, want, can, love, too!
In the early hours of the morning, Leng Xing finally yawned so much that he was about to close his laptop and go to sleep.
"Who is drawing this time?"
"Guess~~~"
"I don't know." She yawned, "Go to sleep, I'm so sleepy."
"Do not you know?"
She did not hear the Duke's whisper.
The picture is a corner of the park, on a wooden bench——
The sitting girl with long hair is leaning forward, lowering her head to the little girl standing in front of her.
The little girl was very cute, she looked only seven or eight years old, she smiled sweetly, with small dimples at the corners of her mouth.
The long-haired girl is tying something around the wrist of the girl in front of her. If you look carefully, you will find that it is a ribbon embroidered with exquisite patterns, made of expensive materials, and inlaid with precious stones.
The sun hit the girl's face, half of her face was almost transparent under the sunlight, while the other half was hidden in the shadows.The deep eyes were fixed on the girl, and the wind whizzed past, blowing the long ribbon into the air, fluttering in the air, like a free elf.
That was the Duke ten years ago.
The author has something to say: the story of the ribbon~
chapter35 Auston (Part [-])
Alston, from England, means a man of noble birth.
——Red Doujun
On January 2014, 1, the last day before the start of the exam week, the Duke sent Leng Xing back to school, and she was going to the company for a meeting.
When Leng Xing knew that the Duke was so busy, he was quite surprised: "A meeting? Shouldn't you be on vacation now?"
"Strigoi don't have holidays, businessmen don't even have one, and I happen to be a combination of the two." The Duke shrugged his shoulders with a look of indifference.
"By the way, I don't know where your company is yet."
"Want to go see?"
"Hmm." She nodded, "I wonder what company doesn't even have holidays."
In fact, the Duke couldn't clear it up yesterday.When Leng Xing sneaked away to the hospital, the Duke was still dealing with military affairs.As a senior official of the Vanjo family and even the entire Camarilla military department, the Duke needs to approve official documents almost every day.
The Duke brought Leng Xing to the company, and through the rolling gate, the skyscrapers that went straight into the sky greeted his eyes.Seeing this situation, Leng Xing immediately refused to go up because she had severe fear of heights.
"Okay, I'll take you back to school now."
Holding the steering wheel loosely with one hand, the Duke stared at Leng Xing.
"No, I'll just take the bus."
Leng Xing quickly opened the car door and got out of the car, but the Duke quickly locked the car and followed.
Even if she wanted to take a bus, she was sent to the station by the Duke, and His Excellency would accompany her to wait for the bus...
"Aren't you going to a meeting?"
"Don't worry, it's more important to be with you."
Leng Xing smiled.
As a result, when the Duke saw the horror scene of crowded people in the bus, who looked like sandwiches, he resolutely rejected Leng Xing's proposal: "No, how can my baby suffer this kind of suffering."
"I have sat countless times before, and I am still alive and well."
Leng Xing couldn't help raising his eyebrows like the Duke. It turned out that the so-called husband and wife looks are actually formed by getting along with each other for a long time and subtle influence on each other.
"Anyway, it's not possible." The Duke's attitude was extremely firm, "I will never allow others to take advantage of the opportunity to attack you."
It turned out to be like this... There were three black lines on Leng Xing's forehead.
This possessive woman...
When the Duke delivered Leng Xing——
"Go to your meeting, I'm going back~ I won't see you~" She smiled and kissed the corner of the Duke's lips, opened the car door, and soon disappeared.
As soon as Leng Xing left, the smile on the Duke's face disappeared without a trace.
Another fierce battle to be fought.
She pursed her lips, thinking of the turbulent scene the day before yesterday.
Taking Leng Xing to the company was not because she really had a meeting, but because she wanted Leng Xing to know where to find her, if... anything unexpected happened.
Why not take her to Fort Shura?Don't be ridiculous, in the wilderness, how do you think Leng Xing, a human being without any spiritual power, will get there?
The Duke drove back to the company, parked the car, and used an instant transfer back to the castle where there was no one there.
A pair of red eyes were facing the Duke's eyes.
"Your Highness." Gavin, a blood man who was nominally the Duke's butler but was actually the Duke's right-hand man, looked at her seriously.
"how is the situation?"
"The radicals were yelling and cursing outside the manor of His Royal Highness Prince Proseus and using their spiritual power to destroy it. The level is very good, after wounding a lot of Guards soldiers, they walked away, and then broke into the elders directly."
"The Presbyterian Church's defense is so poor now, can troublemakers break in casually?" The Duke couldn't help being surprised, which even overwhelmed the anger of the troublemakers for trespassing.
"Your Highness, you also know that most of the elite troops have been transferred to suppress the mutiny of the Bruch family to prevent them from making any further changes. At present, the elite troops are still stationed in Ambitio. Weren't you still at the scene the day before yesterday? Now guarding The presbyterians were just the most ordinary soldiers, and the troublemakers were basically the Zmihi nobles above the viscount, and they easily broke through the defense.”[1]
"Hmm. Then what?"
The Duke has long heard about the cruelty of the Zmich family.In fact, the Duke, who has half of Zmich's blood on his body, is definitely an out-and-out ruthless character, but she grew up in the Vendro family, and she inherited more of the Vendro people's mediation skills in the political whirlpool than The Zmisch spare no effort to suppress the brutality of their enemies.It can be said that the duke's ability to establish a foothold in the military department and establish a high prestige is due to his talent. After all, the military department is a relatively tough and head-to-head place.
Her face darkened, she was only away for a day, and so many things happened.
The Duke remembered the scene of the mutiny of Bruch's army the day before yesterday, and he was in a very bad mood.
July 1, 1 p.m.
"Your Highness, Bruch's army has mutinied and has surrounded the Camarilla Council, demanding the dissolution of the Hidden Alliance and the abolition of the precepts. The family elders voted unanimously to send you to lead the army to suppress the mutiny."
As the leader of the Hidden Alliance, the Vanjo family has spared no effort to maintain the alliance and enforce the precepts without letting up for a moment.At this moment, such a big event happened—the Camarilla Parliament was paralyzed, and the speaker and some members were surrounded by Bruch's army.As a high-ranking official of the military department, Duke Rose, who has a high prestige in the army, is duty-bound to resolve this matter.
"Bruch is really worrying, not being loyal to the alliance and fighting among himself all day long, and asking for the abolition of the precepts? Daydreaming!" The Duke's face was frosty, and she was furious after hearing these things.Ever since she was in charge of the Vanjo family army, the infighting of Bruch's party has caused her troubles, such as coup d'état, chaos, and internal strife.As the leader of the secret party, the Vanjo family, the soul of Camarilla, how could it be possible to let it go?No matter what the situation was, the Ventrue always went to clean up the mess for them, and this task often fell to the Rose Duke.
This time, the trouble is getting worse and worse, and you still want to abolish the precepts?
"Sure enough, it's a family that broke away from the Devil's Party. It's really doing my best to cause trouble for me."
There was a mixture of sarcasm and anger on the Duke's face.
If one had to pick out a family that Duke Rose was most unhappy with, Bruch dared to take the second place, and there would be no number one.The Vanjo family and the Bruhe family have always disliked each other. The Bruhe people rely on their high talent and strong spiritual power, and they don't pay attention to the Vanjo family who controls the secret party and maintains order. A hypocritical politician, arrogant and domineering.In addition, they have a large number of parties, and they believe in basically any religion and theory. From anarchists to radical chauvinists and Nazis, it can be said that there are all kinds of birds in the forest. fight.As a pillar of the Great Revolution, Bruch seldom bowed to the founders of the Hidden Alliance, and generally had a bad opinion of the elders.Although the Bruges are members of the Hidden Alliance, they are the instigators in the alliance, constantly testing the bottom line of the precepts, and rebelling against the group for their own beliefs.Many of the Bruch were radical reactionaries who scorned authority and dismissed the prince.Therefore, they poked out all kinds of baskets every three days, and most of the news about the vampires in human society, such as "vampires appear", "man lost all blood, suspected to be vampires", etc. Made by the He family.As a member of Kamalila, they didn't take the precepts to heart at all, and it could even be said that they regarded them as nothing. [2]
And the Vanjo family, as the enforcers of the precepts, the founders of the alliance, the nobles and conquerors of the blood clan, attaches great importance to rules and laws, so they are naturally very tired of this kind of behavior.At the beginning, the Vanjo people who were natural politicians knew the importance of "maintaining stability". In order to stabilize the situation and prevent the conflict from becoming too intensified, they turned a blind eye to it, as long as the Bruch family didn't go too far They are not very harsh either.However, tolerance turned out to have serious consequences. The Bruhe people took the precepts as air more and more, constantly testing the bottom line of the Vanjo people, and exposed the blood world to the eyes of humans many times, which caused the Vanjo people to be very disgusted.Therefore, the elders of Fanzhuo sent the captain of the law enforcement team to lead the law enforcement team to catch criminals, but the Bruch people, relying on their talents, repeatedly confronted the law enforcement team, and even caused many large-scale conflicts and bloodshed.Finally, the contradictions between the two families accumulated deeper and deeper, reaching the point where they were in dire straits.
The duke's displeasure stems from her many law enforcement experiences.
A long time ago, when she took over the army, all the veteran generals under her hand told her how difficult the Bruch family was. People have dated.In her view, the Bruch are excellent scholars and warriors, dedicated to the pursuit of physical and spiritual perfection.Although the relationship with Fanzhuo is not very good, the Duke appreciates their persistence in their dreams.
However, when she first enforced the law, she was disillusioned with the family.
Originally, this kind of task could not fall to the duke who was in charge of the army.In other words, if the army is equivalent to the National Defense Force in the human world, the law enforcement team is equivalent to the police, and we all know that although the National Defense Forces and the police are the solid backing of the state apparatus, there is an essential difference between the two.The Duke is a high-ranking official in the military department but not the chief of the police station, so it stands to reason that this matter is out of her control.
However, the level of spiritual power of the law enforcement team itself is not high, and the captain has repeatedly been unable to suppress the situation, so - this task unfortunately fell to the Duke one day.Why?People are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong. The Duke is well-known outside the world. Countless classic battles in the Millennium Jihad have made her famous, and the unofficial history of the "Snow Moon Tragedy" that was widely circulated among the blood nobles made the Duke even more famous. The incarnation of Medusa in many people's hearts - she is a rose with thorns, although she is peerless and beautiful, you can't touch it.
Therefore, the elders agreed that the duke's "big name" must be able to suppress many Bruch people. After all, the Bruch family has also suffered a lot from the duke.
When the Duke led the law enforcement team to law enforcement for the first time——
"It's your damn law enforcement team again..."
"Give them some color to see..."
"The precepts are bullshit! The blood race should have the supreme dominance, why should we hide?!" A young man spoke with a passionate expression.
"that is!"
"that is!"
There was a response around, and many Bruch people had already started attacking the law enforcement team members.
"Stop!" snapped the Duke.
"What are you?" A group of disdainful voices.
"As members of Kamalila, your behavior has seriously violated the hidden commandments. I am the captain of the law enforcement team. I have come to arrest you and hand them over to the Kamalila court for trial."
"Hmph, just relying on your poor spiritual power?"
"That's right, are you still called a noble in the blood clan? Only those with strong spiritual power are worthy of the title of noble!"
The Bruchers attacked one after another, and the law enforcement team tried their best to resist. However, because they were only law enforcement officers and had not yet reached the level of a lord, they only had the power of arrest but no order to kill, so they could not use heavy hands, otherwise they would be breaking the law knowingly.In addition, the Bruch people themselves are talented and powerful, so the situation has become one-sided.
The Bruhe people used all kinds of destructive magic circles at will, but the law enforcement team was constrained by their identity and spiritual power, so they could only resist with all their strength.
Seeing that the scene was out of control, the Duke instantly understood in his heart that he could only speak with his fists in this situation.There was a dazzling silver light on her hand——
"Boom——" All the magic circles were forcibly terminated, the explosion spread, and smoke and dust flew everywhere.
When the Duke saw his dust-stained cloak, he looked disgusted, and his whole body was full of aura.
"have you had enough?!"
"Who are you?" The leading Bruhe asked aloud, marveling at her strong ability to control spiritual power.
"Duke Rose of the Vatican family." She responded coldly, and there was a gasp of air all around.
"It's the Duke who beat the crap out of Le Senbai!"
"She is a lunatic...you don't even know how she designed to use the magic circle to explode and severely injure the enemy..."
"Duke Biya was shot to death by her arrow!"
"I heard that she also killed five Elder Fanzhuo in a big burst of spiritual power, and the equivalent of spiritual power was more than [-] million!"
"How is it possible?! She is just a duke, and her spiritual power equivalent will not exceed [-] million!"
"You don't know..." someone whispered, "She is a hybrid of Vatican and Zmixi. When her spiritual power erupts, the highest equivalent is said to be [-] million!"
"Nine hundred million?! The prince has been killed in seconds!"
The cold wind howled, like the weeping of an unknown animal, and at this moment, the apex of the hearts of all the Bruch people seemed to be filled with cold wind, and it was icy cold.
The author has something to say: Note:
[1] Ambitio, the original ambitio is Latin, meaning "ambition".Ambitio is quite far from the Emerald City where Fort Shura is located, and is the administrative center of Bruhe.
[2] Part of the introduction is quoted from the Douban post. I have slightly modified it and quoted some sentences in it.
In fact, all the original frameworks of the settings are derived from various network materials, and I would like to express my gratitude to the providers and organizers of these materials~
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------
I admit that this first half of the chapter actually has little to do with Auston, he really appears in the second half of the chapter.It can be said that Auston is the next person who decides the situation, and with his appearance, the second volume is coming to an end.
Regarding the Bruch family, the protagonists in many blood clan novels are basically Bruch, probably because this family is really rebellious and has personality.I once thought about letting the Duke belong to the Bruch family, but the Duke is a ruler and a conqueror. It should be said that the Vanjo family is more suitable for her... and the method of the Zmich family is also that I let the Duke have the Zmich family. The reason of blood, after all, she commands the army.
The radicals in Zmich were mentioned earlier, but why did they bother with Proseus?There is no enmity between Zmixi and Vatican. Vatican has more enmity with Bruch and Lesen. One does not obey the precepts and always causes trouble, and the other is opposed to the secret party led by Vatican.Because... the relationship between Proseus and Daphne (end of words)
Bruch did not make trouble for the Duke, remember the news that Leng Xing browsed in the chapter "Undercurrents"?About "Vampire Crimes", yes, that's what the Bruchs did.
chapter36 Alston (Part [-])
The Duke folded his arms and looked at the chaotic Bruch and the law enforcement team in silence.
Just let them talk about it. If you are afraid, it will be fine.
Unexpectedly, a young blood clan might not have enough knowledge and experience, but he actually yelled at the Duke: "What are you afraid of, she's just a woman! I don't believe that my spiritual power is not as good as hers!"
A cold light flashed across the Duke's narrow blue eyes, and most of the people shivered.
As for the nobles who are a little bit old, who doesn't know that Duke Rose is an out-and-out female devil who killed people in the late period of the Millennium Jihad without blinking an eye.
"Yeah, I've always heard that people from the Bruch family have high spiritual power." She paced slowly, and then stopped in front of the young man.
He raised his chin proudly, and the senior Bruch nobles around him were pulling his sleeves, signaling him not to offend "Medusa".
"However, you have to know that not all Bruchs have high spiritual powers, and not all Vaticans are inferior to Bruchs!"
She flicked her sleeves violently, and instantly the young man's arms hit the ground, blood spattering everywhere.From the bowl-sized wound, blood fell like a waterfall.
"If I hadn't been the captain of the law enforcement team, you would definitely have paid the price for your actions today!" The duke's expression darkened. You must know that although the killing of the same kind is strictly prohibited in the blood race world, this law is against those who wantonly provoke or even insult the nobles. Behavior is invalid.What's even more frightening is that most of the nobles above the duke are lords and have a great power - the right to kill, the power to kill serious offenders first.And violating the precepts, wantonly provoking, and insulting the nobles, he is simply not enough to die a hundred times, who will let—in the world of blood is power, whoever has the power will have the final say?
Of course, the law will not be written in such a naked and arrogant manner, but there is such a rule in the blood race world: the crime of disrespect is higher than any crime, and it is the same crime as killing relatives.It means that if the following is committed, the sin is as serious as killing one's own kind.In the beginning, the "Snow Moon Tragedy" was caused by this. Hector's act of rushing to power violated the crime of disrespect, so he was killed, but the punishment given to him far exceeded what he should pay. The price—it was war after all, and Hector's merits were more than worth his crimes.If it wasn't for Hector, maybe the current Vanjo family wouldn't be the leader of Camarilla, because it was a battle of life and death!
It's not that the Duke did not commit this crime, but she had lost all reason back then, and the witnesses had already died in the spiritual storm, and they paid the price with their lives for their abuse of punishment.In addition, when it comes to identity, the Duke is actually more noble than any elder at that time - she is a fourth-generation pureblood.It's just that the matter has passed, and there is no evidence, so there is no point in entanglement.
So it is conceivable how angry the Duke, a pure-blood who values rules and laws and is extremely arrogant, will be when he faces such a person who dares to provoke her.
However, she still has a sense of proportion. Since she is here to enforce the law, she can't appear too harsh, especially for a family like Bruch who can't eat soft, and can't eat too hard.
There was dead silence all around, and the nobles of Bruch restrained their trembling bodies and treated the unfortunate young man.
The Duke did not stop him, but coldly pronounced the sentence: "After he is cured, everyone will stop using spiritual power immediately. Violators will be regarded as violent resistance to the law, provoking the lord, and will be shot to death!"
She is not only a politician with a smooth wrist in Vanjoy, but also a high-ranking military official with Zmixi's ruthless style, a deserted silver moon hanging high in the sky, a cold and noble hunting goddess, and a thorny rose that no one dares to touch. .She is different from those law enforcement captains who don't dare to make things big and have ordinary spiritual power!
Afterwards, most of the Bruch people who had seen her wrists chose to surrender.It's just that the waves behind the Yangtze River pushed the waves ahead, and the new blood races sprung up one after another. The Duke continued to build up his prestige through troubles, and at the same time he was exhausted and bored.
However, this mutiny incident has long gone beyond the scope of minor disturbances, and is even more serious than previous large-scale conflicts-Bruch's army came to the parliament, and even surrounded the speaker and many members of parliament, which has a bearing on the survival of the parliament.
The Duke was ordered to lead the most elite troops of the Vanjo family to the Camarilla Council. After all, the physique of the members of the Bruch family is indeed one of the best among the blood clans, and they are born powerful fighters.If during the Millennium Jihad, the Duke was not good at strategy but confronted Bruch head-to-head, it is estimated that the Vanjo family would have been beaten to the ground long ago.
Camarilla Council.
The army of the Bruch family and the army of the Vanjo family confronted each other for three full hours, and the hour hand had already pointed to eight o'clock, but the leader of the rebel army was calm, and the Duke was even more calm—as she said to Leng Xing Yes, what she lacks most is patience.
So, even though she is worried about Leng Xing and anxious to death, she still maintains a perfect poker face, no matter you jump up and down or other things, I will stand still.
Originally, Bruch's siege of the parliament this time was also caused by a group of thoughtless young bloods who were instigated by the radicals in the family. The instigators were eloquent, and the young people were hot-blooded. How could his family still remain in the secret party?How could it be whimsical to disband the alliance?After all, they split too many factions, and no one can convince anyone.
So the Duke was surprised when he heard the news.Bruch loves trouble, but not so united.After all, although the Vatican family is also fighting internally, they are surprisingly united in the face of outsiders, like a monolith, otherwise they would not be the rulers.
Finally, the other party couldn't hold back anymore, and slowed down his posture and said: "Duke Rose, I respect your reputation. If I don't do anything, you quickly withdraw your troops. The Hidden Alliance must be disbanded today!"
The Duke only answered three words: "Don't think about it!"
There was a moment of dead silence, the two opposing armies were silent, only the wind blowing the cloaks of the leaders of the two sides fluttered.
The leader's eyes were deep, and the scarlet eyes looked cruel and terrifying.It wasn't long before he answered.
"on!"
"Defeat their army, overthrow the tyrannical rule of Vanjo, and give my blood race freedom!"
Some of the rebels shouted, trying to cheer their side up.
Bruch's soldiers swarmed up, Markas stared and shouted, "Who dares!"
A wave of soldiers rushing up was shocked by his momentum and stopped in fear.However, the soldiers at the back didn't expect it, and they mutinied immediately. While trampling each other, they shouted indiscriminately to stop the soldiers behind from rushing forward.The scene immediately became chaotic!
However, the Fanzhuo army stood silently, and no one made a move.
Although Markas has a handsome face and looks like a frail young man with average combat effectiveness, he should not be judged by his appearance. In fact, he is more bloody than the Duke.Because the duke was born in the ruling family, her political stance determined that she would not be able to kill others anytime and anywhere, while Marcus was a pure soldier and did not have to worry about public opinion.What is the duty of a soldier?obey orders!What is the honor of a soldier?Kill countless enemies!
Naturally, he is not afraid of death, are you ruthless?I am a hundred times more ruthless than you!
He was stunned and afraid of being horizontal, and he was afraid of dying.
So Marcus, like Zhang Fei of Changbanpo, frightened away tens of thousands of enemy troops with a loud roar.Young people are indeed high-spirited and full of blood, but they also have one of their biggest weaknesses-they haven't seen much in the world.
So an extremely strange scene appeared. They were frightened by Marcus' roar, and after the initial sudden stop and stampede, they reacted and retreated one after another.
In fact, this is not completely strange. Although they are surrounded by the parliament with high fighting spirit, they are unavoidably trembling. After all, the members of the parliament are all blood clans with spiritual power levels above the prince. Still easy.It's just that these politicians are like old fritters, and no one wants to be the first bird, so there is a stalemate like this.
The Duke said in a flat tone: "If Bruch wants sex, it is your family's freedom, and Van Zhuo will not interfere, but if you want to abolish the precepts and disband Camarilla..." She paused for a long time, " Unless, you step over the corpses of me, the Duke of Rose of the Vanjo family and our army!"
She said the last few words ruthlessly and quickly, her expression firm and unshakable.
Before the other party could answer, the Duke turned and looked at her soldiers.
"Maintain the precepts and alliances, and you will die!"
The Vanjo soldiers raised their weapons in unison, the sword tip was shining with light, and the red and black military uniforms danced into a sea of fire.
Otherwise, why do you say the duke has high prestige?It only takes one look to trigger such an overwhelming response.However, this is also inseparable from her peerless beauty and illustrious military exploits.
The Duke turned around, with a smile on his lips: "Which is more important, you can decide for yourself."
Just like the dead silence when she took off the provocateur's arm in law enforcement for the first time, this time the situation was completely on the side of Fan Zhuo. Ten minutes passed, twenty minutes passed, and half an hour passed. Under her seemingly flat but murderous gaze, the rebel leader finally couldn't stand it any longer. He uttered a word: "Let's go!"
And just one day later, another accident happened. It can be seen that the Duke's mood is really more gloomy than the sky covered by PM2.5 floating all over the sky until it explodes.
"The anti-riot army has assembled and is ready to follow His Highness' orders," Gai Wen reported.
"Go with me, you are more familiar with the scene than I am."
The Duke vaguely felt that Zmich's purpose this time was not a head-to-head contest between Bruch's army, but a matter of personal grievances.As the right-hand man who often attends the elders meeting for the Duke, Gavin handles such problems more conveniently than the Duke.
Although he was called the Eagle of Victory and had a name that sounded iron-blooded, his diplomatic skills were no worse than that of any prince.Of course, this doesn't mean that he can't control the army anymore, it's just that Gavin's way is more soothing and silent than the Duke's iron blood.
"Yes, Your Highness."
The Duke and Gavin led the temporarily assembled anti-riot army to the Presbyterian Church, but they did not expect that this trip would actually change the history of the Blood Race.The appearance of an unexpected person, the opening of layers of dark curtains, and the exposure of a huge conspiracy make the trajectory of history gallop away in an unpredictable direction like two repelling magnetic poles suddenly pushing each other away. .
"It turned out to be you!" When the Duke appeared in front of the troublesome Zmihi nobles in the elders' meeting, they were all surprised.
"What's wrong with me?" The Duke was momentarily confused, unable to figure out what they were talking about.
"I know you have silver hair, don't hide it." A Zmixi nobleman looked at the familiar face and said.
"..." The Duke was even more surprised. What happened in the past few days became more and more miraculous.
How would they know what they really looked like? !
"Don't you remember Her Majesty Daphne?" Seeing her confused expression, the Zmixi nobles asked, their attitudes were quite different from the fierce and brutal ones before.
"Duke Rose, what is your relationship with these people?!" One of the elders couldn't sit still, his face was full of anger.
It is normal for the elders not to know the Duke's life experience.After all, after Prince Apollo became the head of the elders, but was criticized because of this mixed-race "monster" daughter, he secretly erased the memory of the elders about the Duke's life experience, and The elders who could not be erased also died during the Millennium Jihad either by their opponents or by the Xueyue tragedy, so now there are very few blood clans in the Fanzhuo family who know the blood of the Duke.
"Daphne?" The Duke looked at them strangely, "Who is Daphne?"
Why does this name have a vague sense of familiarity.
"Who is Daphne?" A Zmixi nobleman repeated, and exchanged glances with the people around him. "It seems that her memory has been erased."
"It's probably Apo's." Another person responded, "An ordinary prince would never have such a powerful ability to erase her memory."
"Yes, after all, she is the daughter of His Royal Highness Daphne."
The Zmisch family can be said to be the most scholarly family.certainly.They are also famous for their crazy enthusiasm for science. In order to get the truth of some things, they have done countless terrible experiments, with objects ranging from animals to humans, and even the blood races themselves.It's no wonder that although their spiritual power level is not as good as that of the Bruch, Van Zhuo, and Le Senbai families, their control ability is extremely powerful.The Duke's mother Daphne is one of the best.
Therefore, they naturally know the secrets of the Duke, whether it is her bloodline or because of the outstanding talent and amazing spiritual power brought by this bloodline. After all, no matter how powerful Apollo is, he can't go to the Zmihi family and kill those who know it collectively. of.Their spiritual power control is really terrifying.
"Who is Apollo?"
"It seems that her memory has been erased more than a little bit. Sure enough, that coup..."
